Eye Patient Fights Synthetic Marijuana Pill Plan
Robert Randall, a glaucoma patient using government supplied marijuana cigarettes, condemns an FDA advisory panel's plan to offer up to 1 million synthetic marijuana pills for chemotherapy patients. He argues pills cannot replace marijuana cigarettes and calls the proposal medically reckless. The plan aims to ease nausea and vomiting during chemotherapy and would place 500 000 pills on hand by Tuesday and another 500 000 by year end. Marijuana remains federally controlled alongside heroin and LSD.
